Management & Leadership Skills For New Managers And Supervisors (2-Day)

Seminar: ID# 1003777

About This Course:

You've Just Been Promoted To "Manager". Now What?

Getting promoted is a heady experience … until reality sets in, and you realize you're not quite sure exactly what's expected of you in your new position.

You're not alone: Many first-time managers step into their new positions feeling apprehensive and ill-prepared. Why? Because it's a lot easier to be a follower than a leader. The skills and talents that made you a valued team player won't necessarily make you a great manager or supervisor.
